Golf cart vs pickup question

[ginwoman]

Does anyone have a small pickup (like an S10)? Do you know the width of the bed? What I am trying to figure out is if our golf cart would fit on a small sized pickup bed. The golf cart dimensions are 44" X 107"

TIA

I have a small S10 with the shortbed, dont have it with me today, but will measure when I get home today, but think it is going to be a hard fit. I use to load a riding mower in the back with a 38'' deck and it was really tight with the wheel wells proturding into the bed.

when we bught ours it would not fit in the bed of the Chevy Dually, because of the inside wheel wells in the bed. we had to have it delivered. It just barely fits width wise in the enclosed trailer. I drive mine into a 4 ft opening thru a gate panel system, at the store. I have about 3 inches of clearance to make it thru. Hopefully yours is a smaller model. The one I have is a 2003 4 seater club.

I serously doubt that it will fit....I have an old S-10 beater truck...Your cart is 107" long...I don't think that would be the wheelbase but it is probably the overall length....That's almost 9'....If it's a short bed, you'll only have about 6'....I can check this afternoon too and let you know....

Golf cart vs pickup truck?

My money is on the pickup, more mass, greater velocity!

My GMC Dually is 50 between the wells.

I do know that a 4' X 8' sheet of plywood will not fit between the wheel wells of an S-10 or a Ford Ranger.

I know forgot to mention teeter totter at the tail gate. long ramps or back up to a ditch and get it on.

Won't fit between them, but there's a good chance it will over them. Look in the side walls for a 2" slot. You can put a 2x6 or 2x8 in those slots and the boards will fit by lying on top of the 2x. I do that in my Sierra.

Anyway, that doesn't help getting a golf cart in....sorry.

It might be too long for an S10 type pickup. An EZ GO golf cart took up the entire bed of my Ford F250 long bed.

How are you going to load/unload it? They are not lightweights. My suggestion would be to rent/borrow a landscape trailer with the loading ramp.

Ok measured my S10 at the the tailgate it was 51" wide then opened up to 55", at the the wheel wells it dropped to about 40" wide at the hump of the wheels, and the bed was 6ft long.

Ok, I used to carry two Honda three wheelers in the back of my 70 Blazer. Top off, rear seat out. They weren't sitting on their wheels though. More like pointing at the sky. You can do it if you try hard enough.

thanks oldhillcrest guy - very much for going to the trouble of measuring your S10. That is a big help. ginwoman

HAHA that would be a sight driving down the road with a golfcart facing the sky. Thanks for responding. ginwoman

Willie: we have a GMC Sierra dually and the golf cart fits on that (we have ramps). I'm just tossing ideas around for if we ever get a motor home (instead of a camper trailer) how we could still have a vehicle to drive and a golf cart once we get to the campground.

My small Nissan has a clear width between wheel wells of just a bit over 39 inches and a bed length of about 72 inches. I think most small pickups are within three or four inches of those dimensions. Doesn't sound like a golf cart would fit very well.
